Spirit and Truth exists to be disciples, being discipled and discipling others into the restored image and likeness of God the Father, through His Son, by His Spirit.
mission
Spirit and Truth’s mission is to intentionally and continuously ‘Go’, making disciples of Jesus Christ throughout all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit, and teaching these disciples to observe all that God has commanded them through Christ Jesus. (Matthew 28:19-20)
Vision
Our vision is to see families, workplaces, communities and cultures impacted and eventually transformed for a Godly good, directly due to the internal presence of God the Holy Spirit at work in and through the discipled members related to this particular assembly.
Our Motto
LEARN HIM. LOVE HIM. LIVE HIM.
Denomination
Spirit and Truth is a non-denominational church, believing that the Bible is sufficiently the sole authority that dictates every aspect of the church’s existence. We allow scripture to shape our beliefs and practices internally as a Biblical Church. We are a self-governing entity, with agreed submission to a vicinage of elders who oversee this church’s organization, structure, teachings, traditions, and most importantly, its faithfulness.
Our SYMBOL
Spirit and Truth’s officially-recognized symbol is the ‘Blood-Stained Dove’. In the Bible, the dove represents New Hope and Peace (Genesis 6:11 – 9:19). It also represents the sacrifice of the poor and purification (Leviticus 5:7, 12:6). Most importantly, it represents the Holy Spirit of God (Matthew 3:16-17). The dove is a fitting representation of our church as we are located on the island of Tortola (Virgin Islands), which translates to ‘Turtle Dove’.
